“Valentines Lunch”

Dropped in on Saturday 14th lunchtime without a reservation and was quickly seated upstairs.
The black pudding scotch egg starter was amazing followed by local Pickering trout.
The service was efficient and friendly.
Value for money was excellent.
We will be back.

Drink selection is less than average.
We had the cheesesteak egg rolls for an appetizer. They...

We went to check Bistro 19 out for my best friend's birthday. She has recently moved to downtown York and had wanted to try it since it looked jazzy and fun. Our party of four was seated relatively quickly in the front indoor dining room which was clean and comfortable, and once the lights were dimmed, the atmosphere was quite...

Food is fine and service is mixed. It has limited outdoor seating - on George Street - but there really isn't enough room to enjoy it without pedestrians hitting you as they walk on the sidewalk. The staff is friendly, but the service can be slow. Great location to drop by before a show at the strand to catch a...
